Educational Network WINFOLine

Project Description

The idea of the educational network Winfoline is to exchange business informatics courses between the participating departments of different universities. This will increase the range of courses offered at the respective universities and provide students with a larger number of courses at their local universities.
The courses are available online, so that students can use them regardless of time and place. The examinations take place at the local universities of the students.

This exchange ring has been used since 1998. It was created by project Winfoline, funded by the Bertelsmann Stiftung and the Heinz Nixdorf Foundation, which was further funded by the BMBF as Education Network Winfoline.
